NubianNewYorkers - Let's Get Moving! Debunking Fitness Myths!



Hey there, beautiful souls! 

Today we're talking about something near and dear to my heart: getting healthy and feeling fabulous! Now, on that journey, there can be a lot of misinformation floating around. So, let's clear the air and bust some myths that might be holding you back.



-Empty Stomach Workouts?

Honey, listen to your body! While some folks might swear by it, if you need a little fuel to get that fire going, grab a healthy snack or protein shake.


-Static Stretches Beforehand?

Hold on a minute, Misterfriend! Static stretches before a workout might not be the best idea. Let's focus on dynamic movement to get those muscles warm and ready.



-Exercise Fixes a Bad Diet?

Uh-uh, that ain't the gospel truth. We gotta nourish our bodies with good food alongside that workout routine. You can't outrun a bad diet, but you can absolutely create a healthy lifestyle with both!

 

-Spot Reduction? Let's Be Realistic. 

Certain exercises can build muscle in specific areas, but don't you go thinking you can just sculpt one spot. We want well-rounded strength and health, honey! 



-Perfect Abs Just From Crunches?

Crunches are great, but remember what they say: "Abs are made in the kitchen." A balanced diet is key to seeing those results.

 

The Post-Workout "Magic Window"?

No need to stress about that 30-minute window. Your body has more time than that to refuel and recover. Focus on healthy eating throughout the day. 



-Sweat = Weight Loss?

Hold on, sweetie! Sweating is a good sign, but it doesn't guarantee fat loss. Stay hydrated and focus on a sustainable workout plan.


-Gotta Go Hard or Go Home?

Absolutely not! Even short bursts of exercise are beneficial. Find activities you enjoy and create a routine that works for you. Consistency is key!


-Standing All Day?

Being on your feet is fantastic, but it's not quite the same as intentional exercise. Get that heart rate up, break a sweat, and move your beautiful body!




There you have it, my friends! Let's go out there, embrace the joy of movement, and celebrate our amazing bodies. Remember, knowledge is power, and this knowledge will be your guide to a healthier, happier you!
